Stitch Make a Wish Cottage with this Merejka counted cross-stitch kit a moss-roofed stone cottage glowing warmly from within, framed by autumn trees and a flower-draped wishing well beside a stone path lined with red and violet blooms under a soft pink sunset. Worked on Zweigart 16-count ecru Aida fabric with premium DMC threads in 39 carefully matched shades, this architectural design is richly detailed and full of character.
Why this kit: 39 DMC shades render the cottage's glowing windows and mossy thatched roof with warm, realistic depth; two chart versions with and without backstitches let you choose the crispness of the stonework and window details; the wishing well and flower-lined path add storybook charm beyond a typical cottage scene.
Kit includes: canvas, DMC threads, John James needles, and a detailed colour chart.
Counted cross-stitch is worked by following the colour chart and placing each stitch on the gridded Aida fabric with the indicated DMC thread shade. The backstitch version sharpens the cottage's window panes and stonework, while the no-backstitch version keeps the design's soft, painterly glow. Work section by section until the design is complete, then frame as a warm addition to any wall.
Finished size: 30x41 cm (11.81x16.14 in), creating a generous artwork that looks stunning when framed. An impressive project for experienced stitchers and a wonderful gift for lovers of historic architecture and fine needlework.
